Stolen Angel

Played by the New Riders of the Purple Sage in the late 1970s,
introduced on 28 July 1978 as "another brand new one"

Everybody wants to have a piece of your life, honey
Looks like you've been ripped off twice
And he said they would make you pay for what he made you do, honey
And it looks like [seeing] he was right

Oh stolen, stolen angel
This song's for you but it's from me
Stolen, stolen angel
While anyone is a prisoner
Then none of us is free

One wrong is enough, but right was never made with two, honey
[This spell is enough or in the eye]
And he said they would make you pay for what he made you do, honey
And it looks like [seeing] he was right

Oh stolen, stolen angel
This song's for you but it's from me
Stolen, stolen angel
While anyone is a prisoner
None of us is free

You, you, yes I mean you
You, you, you baby, what could they do

Everybody wants to have a piece of your life, honey
Looks like you've been ripped off twice
And he said they would make you pay for what he made you do, honey
And it looks like [seeing] he was right

Oh stolen, stolen angel
This song's for you but it's from me
Stolen, stolen angel
While anyone is a prisoner
Then none of us is free

While anyone is a prisoner
Then none of us is free
Stolen, stolen angel
Stolen, stolen angel
Stolen, stolen angel
